A compact Ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with bandnotched characteristic is presented in this paper. It has compact size of 30 mm x 31mm and has ultra wide band operation. A ‘C’ shaped slot was introduced to achieve band notch function from 4.8 GHz to 6 GHz to avoid interference from WLAN. The proposed antenna has ultra wide band frequency range from 3 GHz to 11.5 GHz for return loss below -10 dB...

Abstract— A simple and compact ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna integrated with dual band-notched and desirable gain characteristics is presented in this article. The proposed antenna consists of a rectangular-shaped radiator with a partial ground plane and fed by a 50 Ω microstrip line. By inserting two altered H-shaped slots on the proposed radiator, dual band-notch are created to eliminate the w...

Wideband Phased Array Antennas and Compact Harmonic-Suppressed Microstrip Filters. (December 2006) Wen-Hua Tu, B.S., National Chiao Tung University; M.S., National Taiwan University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kai Chang Modern satellite, wireless communications, and radar systems often demand wideband performance for multi-channel and multi-function operations. Among these applications, ph...

Design of multiband antennas with low volume is of practical interest for the ever growing wireless communication industry. In this paper, the design of PIFA antenna with multiband resonance for WiMAX, WLAN, HIPERLAN/2 applications by using genetic algorithm (GA) is presented. Genetic algorithm (GA) method was used to design the shape of the patch and the shape of the ground plane simultaneousl...

An ultra-wideband (UWB) self-complementary planar bow-tie antenna (SCPBTA) is proposed. The antenna consists of a printed conical horn-shaped (CHS) radiator and a counterpart CHS slot etched on a rectangular ground plane. The printed CHS radiator is connected directly to the 50Ω microstrip line by bending the end portion of the feed line. As a result, the antenna has a simple structure which do...

Bow-tie antenna is one of wideband antennas [1]. It has been reported that the bow-tie antenna has been miniaturized by adding folded elements [2]. In this paper, it is shown that bending the bow-tie antenna with folded elements is effective method for miniaturization. The bent bow-tie antenna with folded elements can be more miniaturized than conventional bow-tie antenna with folded elements, ...

The intent of this paper is to compare two designs of RFID antenna which is used for Ultra High frequency (UHF) and Ultra wideband (UWB) applications. Here the comparison of Hybrid design and XETS design is done. In hybrid design the antenna simultaneously operate on both the bands viz.UHF as well as UWB. In XETS design antenna operates only for UWB. Hybrid antenna is planar antenna. There is a...

The paper describes the design and the experimental verification of three types of wideband antennas. Attention is turned to the bow-tie antenna, the Vivaldi antenna and the spiral antenna designed for the operation at millimeter waves. Bandwidth, input impedance, gain, and directivity pattern are the investigated parameters. Antennas are compared considering computer simulations in CST Microwa...
